I have been working on a new drawing in the Marcescent series and I made an initial drawing that I abandoned because I decided I wanted to adjust the still life in order to improve the overall composition. But when I moved part of the still life the whole thing collapsed and I had no choice but to start over. What is interesting is that now when I look back at that initial sketch/drawing I actually like it as is. It has an energy to it that I loose as I get tighter with the drawings I am making. I think I need to wipe away and redraw parts of the second drawing to capture the energy in the collapse. The top one is dancing. The bottom is stiff and posed and not quite what I want. It is interesting to look at them both side by side. I wish I had a wall to pin them up on. Dang I wish I had a studio to work in!!!
